Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry about the "sieve, funnel,
vacuum,... " cheer.  It was informative.  To be fair, and totally honest,
I should admit what my friends on the H-L list already know-  my interest
in this is not completely objective, since I am a goalie myself, and am
constantly pained by this cheer!
        Nonetheless, I stand by my earlier complaint about the accuracy
of the cheer...
